matthewmichael Just love this show my kids are hooked on it. These other reviews complaining about the animation....could you do better? I love the animation...it's not too busy like other cartoons..simple, family friendly story lines I think it is great! All the characters are funny and the town they live in is simple. I wish they could make more episodes! I remember watching the older Garfield show And I think this show is better. Garfield up to all his same adventures...alien lasagna..dog catchers etc. Give this show a chance and after watching it I'm sure you'll agree. My kids watch them back to back all day on Saturdays. Also glad Netflix has this show.
kiti22 This Show is a Disgrace to the Garfield Franchise the First Garfield The Original Garfield Cartoon that first aired in the 80s was such a Classicbut this one is Bad The Characters Look Terrible in CGI The Soundtrack is Terrible the Episodes are awful and the Animation was Horrible talk about the characters, Garfield was not funny in this CGI Cartoon hes rude, loud and very annoying but hes seriously not funny Nermal Ruined the series because hes one of the most annoying characters ever and this show has no plot at allthis is one of the worst cartoons that first aired in the Late 2000s so Stay away from that cartoonwant to watch a cartoon with your young siblings try avatar the last airbender or my little pony friendship is magic
Brett Burnes The animation is just terrible. I'm not an artist, an art student, an art school drop-out, or a TV exec, but This Garfield lives in a peculiar world with no right angles at all. It's as if they are trying to simulate clay-mation with CGI. Everything has a weird rounded softness to it. And the lip-sync is just wrong. The mouth movements have only a passing relationship with anything being said. Something went tragically wrong with the animation on this show. Everyone looks like they've had a couple dozen facelifts when they are speaking. And, while we're on it, unlike the comic strip and the older TV show, Garfield speaks his lines rather than "thinking" them, thereby treating us to even more of this atrocious lip-sync.So the look is like the script--not too sharp. The writing captures only the most obvious things about the source material. The comic strip and the Garfield and Friends offered jokes that worked for the kids as well as jokes that work for the adults. I *think* The Garfield Show thought the 4th Wall-breaking asides would be sufficient to service this need, but they do not work.Every so often we get a brief scene in which Garfield and Odie sit down to have a serious chat with us to remind us to not feed "people food" to pets, and to always eat healthy. These little treats play as condescending and insincere. Like a lawyer is making them cover their asses to lower the insurance rates. In fact the entire show reeks of a low-budget money-grab. There is not art here, just someone managing risk, and milking money out of a character beloved by many.
njnya (This is me and my friend's review). This is the worst show since Out of Jimmy's Head. The animation... where do I start. I KNOW! I'll start with the trees....FLAT. It's animated in 3D, but most of back ground props are 2D. Plus there's pretty much no texture in anything. The grass is just a flat plane of green with a few 2D sprigs here and there. Well, at least the characters have shadows.... do they? I don't know. Another thing is the camera angles. The camera moves around a lot, sometimes the camera will pointlessly rotate around the entire area. In one episode, when the camera stopped rotating, it stopped behind a tree and half of the screen was covered by the tree. What about the humor? 70% of humor = Jokes about Garfield's eating habits.10% of humor = "Fourth wall" jokes.20% of humor = otherYa, most of the jokes are about Garfield's eating habits with some fourth wall jokes here and there. It's only made me come close to laughing once, maybe twice. Another thing is how there's not very many jokes in the show. The Plots: I NEED LASAGNA, I NEED PIZZA, BUY ME FOOD, I'M FAT, I NEED MORE FOOD, I NEED SOMEONE TO COMPLEMENT ME ON HOW SKINNY I AM( His owner: Loose weight Garfield)! Also he can be kind of a jerk to some of the other characters, For example: beating up Nermel, throwing Odie out of the house ext. Other than that, the plots are mostly average like some guy being mean to his animal and then getting arrested.Color scheme: The colors are mostly off like one scene (as seen by my friend) John's shirt was light blue in one scene and then dark blue in the next. My friend says the character design is ugly because they are all round, and they lack shading. It's hard to believe this show has over 150 episodes. Over all, this show lacks in most categories. It's basically just your average kid's show (and below average in animation). Me: turns on TV, TV: Next up, back to back primers of the Garfield show, and after that, Johnny Test, and after that, more Garfield show! Me: Uuggggggghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!
